At the request of the Swedish Government, Business Sweden has mapped the domestic value chain for new nuclear build – from development and construction to grid connection – in dialogue with the Swedish Energy Agency and industry stakeholders. The analysis highlights Sweden’s strengths, capability gaps, and opportunities for international collaboration.
The findings are clear:
- Sweden is strong in civil works, construction, grid connection, and industrial systems.
- Civil works alone could generate thousands of jobs and long-term capacity for Swedish companies.
- International partnerships are essential for reactor design and specialised manufacturing.
- A coordinated, programme-based approach will be critical to secure skills and attract investment.
This report equips decision-makers, industry leaders, and international partners with the insights needed to position Sweden as a regional hub for nuclear innovation, strengthen local supply chains, and secure long-term competitiveness in a global energy market.
